Subscription boxes are all the rage right now. From science stuff for kids, to clothes, to food. If you want a specific subscription box, it’s probably out there. Today I’m sharing a review of HelloFresh and for those who would also like to give it a try I have a HelloFresh promo code for you. I’ve been eyeing the different substitution meal boxes available and wondering what all the hype is. Are they really worth it? Is the food any […]
Weekly Dinner Menu Ideas
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.When I “shopped my pantry” for a few weeks, one of my goals was to create weekly dinner menu ideas that I could use in a pinch. I still love my menu board but planning it out each time became a challenge and I quit doing it. Sometimes I have freezer meals from a big freezer cooking day (which reminds me, I need to do that again soon), and sometimes I have a meal in particular I wish to make […]
Monthly Shopping List for Aldi
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.Our Aldi is about 15 minutes away which is really nice.

After one particular hot spinach artichoke dip appetizer disappeared seemingly faster than usual (thanks to the toddler) it occurred to me that I could probably make […]

I sat there in a bit of shock and decided right then and there to issue myself a shop my pantry challenge. At the end of last year I looked over our grocery spending and realized we had spent around $13 a day on food. That is less than the “thrifty plan” mentioned on the USDA costs of […]

Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.I’ve never really freezer-cooked before, most plans didn’t suit me and it looked huge. Then I found OAMM. Today I’m sharing how to freezer cook with your favorite recipes and how I did it in just a day. Most of the freezer meals I see on Pinterest aren’t allergy friendly or just contain ingredients I don’t use. I’ve also felt they were quite confusing and it just didn’t make a lot of sense. Often I would stick to making large batches […]
